THURSDAY, JANUARY 5, 1893.
ONLY. I [III BLAZE.
But ExplosiOns Played Havoc
With Chicago Firemen.
A FIRE WHICH WAS STARTED
FROM NATURAL GAS.
Two Dylng and a Score of Others
.Hurt.
CHICAO'O, Jan. 5. — Shortly before 3
o’clock yesterday afternoon a terrific ex-
plosion of natural gas wrecked the lower
. part of the great printing establishment
of Donohue & Henneberry on Dearborn .
The accident occcurred during ‘
street.
the progress of a. small fire, and overs
score of firemen, including Chief Swenie g
of the Fire Department and several labor-
ers, were seriously injured. Two men '
are dying, and others are so seriously
burned that they may not recover.
5' The explosion was in the plate vault
beneath the sidewalk, which is formed of
heavy iron frames covered with glass and
iron. Foreman Robert Granger, of the
press room, noticed the flames near the
brick wall between the press room and
the vault. The foreman gave an alarm of
fire. He then returned to the basement
when some one threw open the vault'
door. Instantly there was an explosion,
and nearly all the employes, about 10 in
number, were thrown to the floor, sus-
taining more or less serious injuries.
In a few moments the fire insurance
patrol and hose engine companies were on
the spot,headed by Chief Swenie. ’ The
firemen rushed to the basement, and had
no sooner reached the vault door than a
second and stronger explosion followed,
and all the men were hurled to the floor
or across the room against the wall on the
opposite side, ’which they struck with
terrific force. Several of the men were
rendered senseless, and the flames which
had ignited their clothing roasted their
hands and faces. Other firemen were
close behind them, however, and for a. few
minutes the fire was left to take care of
itself while the injured men were rescued.
Before one-half of them had been taken
out, and while the basement was full of
men working with desperation to save
their helpless comrades, came a third ex-
plosion more terrible than either of its
predecessors, and the rescuers were laid
beside the men they had come to assist.
This time the already loosened ironwork
covering the vault was torn from its
iastenings and came thundering down.
Fresh food for the gas was already at
hand, and a score of gallant firemen
sprang into the vault to rescue the men
who had been injured, undeterred by the
danger of another explosion, and, cheered
on by Swenie. The firemen worked as men
can work when their own lives and the
lives of others are tremdling in the bal-
ance. One by one the burned and bat-
tered men were dragged from the base-
ment, and as the last one was taken out
Sw enie called:
“Now out for your lives, men!”
There was arush for the upper floor,
which was made just in the nick of time,
for a fourth explosion came, which made
bricks, mortar and iron work fly like
feathers and gave the Chief a scorch as
he beat a retreat that he will remember
for many a long day. Hurrying to the
door Swenie called to the driver of a
patrol wagon standing near, and ordered
it to drive at once to the office Of the Na-
tural Gas Company and tell them to shut
Off the flow of gas.
“If it is not done,” he said, “I won’t
answer for the safety of the building.”
The patrol wagon took only a few min-
utes to fulfill its mission,the gas was shut
off and the firemen went at the fire once
more and made short work of it.
great building, however, had been badly
strained and torn,and every pane of glass
in the eight stories was on the ground.

HILL 1N 'iIS SEAT.
He Talks of flu: I‘d Itch-Talked of
York Sit-:mloi'shlp.
ll’asmNGTon’, l). (3., Jan. 5.—Senator
Hill was in his seat in the Senate yester-
day and was overwhelmed with inquiries
about the so-called Senatorial contest at
Albany. The Senator would not admit
that there was any Contest on hand, and
said that it seemed to be the almost
unanimous opinion of the members of the
Legislature that Edward Murphy, Jr.,
should be the successor of Mr. Hiscock
in the Senate. Mr. Hill told sOme of his
friends who referred to the fact that the
caucus was to be held a few days earlier
than usual, that this was done because of
the fact that Gov. Flower was to hold his
reception on the ninth, when the, New
York Congressmen and prominent Demo‘
crats from all over the State would be
present in Albany. They would thus be
on hand to express their opinions as to
the choice of a Senator, and that, there-
fore, that was an appropriate time for
holding the caucus.
Anti-Crisp Movement Broken.
WASHINGTON, D. (3., Jan. 5.——Speaker
Crisp was in his room at the Capitol for a
long time after the House adjourned yes-
terday and was constantly surrounded by
a group of Congressmen and other callers
who came to congratulate him on his
recovery and incidentally, to learn from
him, if possible, about his recent talk with
the President-elect, but Mr. Crisp, how-
ever, was like a clam. The anti-Crisp
movement has totally collapsed.
New York’s Caucus Called.
ALBANY, N. Y., Jan. 5.—In order that
no one might say that the Senatorial cau-
cus/was called hastily or without due
notice, the formal call Was issued yester-
day instead of next week. Not only is
the call issued a week in advance instead
of the day before, as is the ~custom,. but
Speaker Sulzer announced that he will
appoint all the committees next Monday
night, the day before the caucus.
Members Sworn in by Gov. .tussell.
BOSTON, Jan. 5.—-—Both branches of the
Legislature met yesterday. The Senate
organized by the re-election of President
Pinkerton of Worcester. In the House
the Speaker and Clerk of 1892, Messrs.
William E. Barrett and Edward A. Mc-
Laughlin were re-elected-. Two hundred
and twenty-nine members of the House
took the oath, which was administered
by Gov. Russell.
Nebraska’s Senate Didn’t Organize.
LINCOLN, eb., Jan. 5.——The Senate
failed to effect a permanent organization
yesterday and 'the inauguration of state
officers will probably not occur today as
expected. The Populist and Democratic
Senators have been in almost constant
caucus, but they have thus far been un-
able to make satisfactory terms for a
fusion in organizing.
Michigan’s Political Situation.
LANSING, Mich., Jan. 5.———Thcr/e is but
little change in the Senatorial situation.
Both sides continued confident and each
believes it has added cause for rejoicing.
- The election of W. A. Tatum of Grand
Rapids, as Speaker of the House is claimed
by the Stockbridge men as a victory
which indicates the strengthof their can

Don’t \Vant the Negro Vote.
BALTIMORE, Jan. 5.——The Eutaw Club,
the swoll Republican organization of the
city, has taken the initiative in ignoring
the negroes in this city, and other clubs
propose to follow the example. The mat-
ter has caused a sensation among the
colored men, who have always considered
themselves of great weight in local poli-
tics.
Only One Contestant Left.
SACRAMENTO, Cal., Jan. 5.-—New com-

a small following but he might have ral-

, The Maine Legislature.
AUGUSTA, Me., Jan. 5.—-—'I‘he Sixty-sixth
Maine Legislature was organized yester-
day. In the Senate A. M. Spear was elect-
ed President. In the House A. R. Savage
,was elected Speaker. It is evident that
considerable seashore fishery legislation
will be asked for.
New Hampshire’s Law Makers.
CONCORD, N .- H ., Jan. 5.—Both branches

A BIG BEER WAR. '»
Low-Cut Prices Among the Big Breweries,
of St. Louis.
ST. LOUIS, Mo., Jan. 5. ——The biggest
beer war ever known in this country was
inaugurated here yesterday, and the price
.of the amber fluid dropped as rapidly as
the mercury in a thermometer on the ap-
proach of a blizzard. The war started be-
tween the syndicate brewers, known as
the St. Louis Brewing Association, and
the new breweries which include the
American, National, Columbia, Home and
Oberts’ Brewing Associations. The war
will also involve the Anheuser-Busch and
Lemp Brewing Companies, which do not
belong to the syndicate or association
organizations. It is principally directed,
however, against the new breweries which
have sprung up since the syndicate was
formed.
In the competition for trade both the
Association and the newly established
concerns have been allowing rebates first
to one customer and- then another, and
making slight reductions all along the
line trying to-win away from their com-
petitors what trade they could. The As-
sociation yesterday cut the price to $48.
barrel, which is the cost price to the
breweries, so that Whatever local trade is
done on that basis is done at a loss to the
breweries. Prices will go still lower and
I. barrel of beer will be sold for $2 or even
ess.
'A MURDEROUS MADMAN.
Tried Il‘igst lo Choke His Child, Then
Turned on His “’if‘e.
BALTIMORE, Md, Jan. 5. —- Louis
Schmulorwitz, a Russian Jew, became
violently insane while at home and tried
to choke his baby. Picking up the little
one he began to fondle it in apparentlyxa
most affectionate manner. The mother
turned her back and a gasp from the lit-
tle one-attracted her attention. Wheeling
around quickly she was horrified to see
her husband calmly choking the child to
death. His hands were tightly clasped
about the baby’s throat and its tongue
was protruding as it suffered the agonies
of suffocation.
She screamed and sprang to her infant’s
rescue. Then he dropped it and drawing
*8 shears made at her. She grabbed the
c ild and fled with the madman in pur-
suit; up and down the stairways they
gushed, the woman shrieking for help.
She wOuld probably have been killed had
not other inmates interfered. It required
the strength of six men to bind the luna-
tic, who was sent to BayVIew.
PITTSBURG’S SFNDAY PAPERS.
The Law and Order League “'ill Try to .
Stop Only Their Distribution.
PITTSBURG. Jan. 5.-—~The Law and Order
Society is well pleased with the action of
the State Supreme Court in upholding
the Sunday law regarding the publica-
tion of newdpapers, but will make no ef~
fort to stop the publicatien. It will aim
.to stop their delivery and all traffic in
Sunday papers.
President James W. Houston spoke for
the Law and Order Society: “The decision
is just what we expected, and it will in no
way affect our movements. We will con-
tinue to pursue the even tenor of our way,
filing informations with magistrates for
every Sunday’s work done by carriers
and agents of newspapers, and others en-
gaged in promoting their circulation and
distribution. We have no intention of
prosecuting editors, reporters, or com-
positors. The reporters and editors are a.
specially formed class generally and will
be exempt from any responsibility shifted
on them by their mercenary employers.
Marshall Cushing‘s Book.
WASHINGTON, D. 0., Jan. 5.—Marshall
Henry Cashing, the newspaper corre-
spondent who has been the private secre-
tary to Postmaster-General Wanamaker
during the Harrison administration, has
written a book which is about to be
issued-from a Boston publishing house.
Its title is “The story of our Post Office,”
and it is a most interesting and unique
volume. Mr. Cushing’s aim has been to
give in a gossipy, story-telling way, a
‘Iale about how the postal business of the
country is carried on, and he has admir-
ably succeeded.
The. Arkansas Penitentiary Pest.
LITTLE ROCK, Ark, Jan. 5.-—No addi-
tional deaths have occurred at the Peni-
tentiary since Tuesday. Several are very
sick. Dr. Williams of the Memphis,
Tenn., Marine Hospital reached here yes-
terday to assist Dr. Geddings. A bottle
of water from the branch at Helena,Ark.,
where the convicts who were first taken
sick quenched their thirst, has been sent
for by the board. Dr. Geddings says he
thinks the disease started from decaying
vegetables and animal matter. The bac-
terial examination will be finished Friday.

COLUMBUS, Jan. 5.-—“I expect to make

the Chittonden Hotel chatting. with a re-.
porter just before the curtain went up on
his play at the Henrietta.
“And who is to be your opponent in
that fight?” asked the reporter.
“Mitchell, without a doubt,” promptly
replied Corbett. “He will come to

who is playing an engagement at Provi-
